George Washington's Pancake Flour

Enjoy a taste of early American history with this stone-ground pancake flour inspired by George Washington’s innovative farming at George Washington's Gristmill.

In 1771, after transitioning from tobacco to wheat, Washington built a new mill along Dogue Run and began exporting his finely milled flour to Europe and the West Indies. By 1791, he embraced cutting-edge technology from inventor Oliver Evans, modernizing his mill and improving production. Today, you can enjoy grains stone-ground by water power, just as they were in Washington’s time.

The 2-pound muslin bag of pancake flour contains corn, wheat, and barley.  Additional ingredients required: salt, sugar, milk, baking powder, oil or shortening, and one egg.
